Peking-style Pork Chops with Roasted Bok Choy

Peking-style Pork Chops with Roasted Bok Choy

These Peking-style Pork Chops are sweet with a hint of spice. It’s easy to make when you take a short-cut and buy a good Hoison Sauce. I add a bit extra crushed red pepper and soy. Serve with roasted baby bok choy.

Ingredients:

8 thinly sliced pork chops

2 Tbsp of vegetable oil

1 cup of Hoison Sauce (found in the International Food isle)

2 tsp of crushed red pepper

2 Tbsp of soy sauce

salt and pepper to taste

8 heads of baby bok choy

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Prepare baby bok choy by spreading it out on a greased cookie sheet and coating it in 4 Tbsp of oil with a pinch of salt and pepper.  Cook 10 minutes, turning once.

Pat the pork chops dry.  (Doing this helps the pork to grab onto the sauce and get a good coating.)  In a shallow bowl, mix Hoison Sauce with crushed red pepper.  Dilute the mixture with soy sauce.

In a large skillet over high heat, add 3 Tbsp of vegetable oil.  When the oil thins and starts to smoke, dip each pork chop in the sauce and then place on the hot skillet to cook 7-10 minutes.  Flip to the other side and cook another 7-10 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees.

Serve with roasted baby bok choy.
